6 TEST: ILLEGAL DISCRIMINATION OR NOT? 1. PROTECTING PREGNANT EMPLOYEE S BABY? A female employee became visibly pregnant. Her supervisor stated that he cared about her baby and assigned her to work less physically active duties because he did not want her to over-exert herself and harm her baby. 2. NEUTRAL EMPLOYMENT TESTS? A large company required its job applicants to have a high school diploma and complete a general intelligence test so as to generally improve the overall quality of the workforce. Black employees sue. The court found that the company did not intend to discriminate against Blacks. 3. LANGUAGE PROBLEMS? An engineer was terminated after his supervisors became so frustrated that they could not understand him because of his foreign accent. The engineer was assigned to lower-level work and instructed to take an English as a Second Language class. Who wins? Employee wins on a sex discrimination claim. Who wins? Employees win on a race discrimination disparate impact claim. Who wins? Employee wins on a combined race, national origin and retaliation claim. Copyright 2018, Presented By: Jesse Chen, Esq., 陳成律师 Call: (412) , chen@chenesq.com
7 TEST: WHO WAS RIGHT? 4. CUSTOMER PREFERENCE? An airline rejected a male job applicant for a flight attendant position. The airline said that its customers preferred female flight attendants, and so to satisfy its customers preferences, restricted flight attendants to females only. 5. RACIAL PREFERENCES? A very prestigious university gave bonus points to only Blacks, Hispanics and Native Americans in its admissions evaluation. The stated policy was affirmative action and to promote diversity. Rejected White applicants sue. 6. RACIAL PREFERENCES, PART 2 A very prestigious university used race as a substantial weight in determining admissions, had a policy of enrolling a critical mass of non-white students, and rejected a White applicant. White applicant sues. Who wins? Employee wins on a sex discrimination claim. Who wins? White applicants win. The bonus points system is too mechanistic. Who wins? University wins. Diversity is a compelling interest when race is narrowly used. Copyright 2018, Presented By: Jesse Chen, Esq., 陳成律师 Call: (412) , chen@chenesq.com
